The figure of pairs function was so difficult to read on my laptop, so I ended up drawing also histograms to look at the distributions of the variables (unfortunately it can’t be displayed while knitting index because of the plot size, code commented out). Many variables are heavily skewed. The only variables close to normal distribution seem to be ‘average number of rooms per dwelling’(rm) and ‘median value of owner-occupied homes in $1000s’ (medv).
The correlation plot shows the relationships between the variables. Strongest negative correlations can be found between:
* weighted mean of distances to five Boston employment centres (dis) and proportion of owner-occupied units built prior to 1940 (age)
* dis and nitrogen oxides concentration (nox)
* dis and proportion of non-retail business acres per town (indus)
* lower status of the population percent (lastat) and median value of owner-occupied homes in $1000s (medv)
Strongest positive correlation is between index of accessibility to radial highways (rad) and full-value property-tax rate per $10,000 (tax)

LDA model seems to predict classes quite well with accuracy of ~75% (varying between seeds). The model performed best in classifying high crime rates.

The optimal number of clusters is when the value of total WCSS (y-axis) changes radically, here it seems to be around two clusters.
# k-means clustering
km <- kmeans(boston_scaled2, centers = 2)
# plot the Boston dataset with clusters
pairs(boston_scaled2[1:6], col = km$cluster)
pairs(boston_scaled2[7:14], col = km$cluster)
I plotted the clusters in two separate plots, since the figures are otherwise two small for me to see in laptop, but this way I don’t see all the pairs. Overall it looks like two clusters works nicely in most of the pairs.
